About

Cley's 5-year-old single malt stands as an impressive achievement in Dutch whisky production. Despite its youth, this cask strength malt demonstrates remarkable complexity and maturity beyond its years. The carefully crafted spirit, combining a mixed malt mashbill, delivers a layered and characterful whisky with an exceptionally creamy mouthfeel. The nose reveals sweet, sticky fruit notes of pear, cherry, and apple, complemented by honey and toasty undertones. On the palate, fruity notes of raisins and apricots emerge first, gradually transitioning to sweet vanilla, coconut, and caramel. The finish remains soft and smooth, striking a pleasant balance between the spirit's fruity character and subtle peat influence.
